#ProPlantTips for Care:

Asiatic Lilies are not particular about soil type, as any well-drained soil works great, but they do need full sun or part sun to bloom best. Just don't let them dry out during drought, topping the soil with a 3-4 inch deep layer of arborist mulch to hold the soil moisture in more consistently, and insulate the bulbs. Because these are Bulbs with smaller root systems, they will not grow in wet or waterlogged soils.

Deadhead after bloom, but keep your foliage until fall to make food for the bulb, then cut back in autumn to prepare for winter.

• Full Sun & Partial Sun
• Must Have Very Well-Drained Soil
• Moderate Yet Consistent Moisture Needs
• Appreciates Mulched Beds
• Deadhead After Flowers Fade & Prune Back in Autumn
